Gm did it this way so it would be more labor to replace the pump...i.e dropping the tank instead of the access panel. If it was redesigned, theres no reason they wouldn't put the access door in. Yes there are hack jobs, but I've also seen ones done real nice w/gaskets, and allen screws/torx done to mimic a factory produced look.
